The other ones in test are expected within the week. After that ... "more HD is coming". When has not been stated but some in the third quarter has been mentioned. Hopefully there will be some additions between "within a week" and "third quarter". This thread is more fun when people are happy.

I know there are some Western feeds aren't in HD, so if some of those were added would be great.

Peace Whoga

I see little point in having western feeds in HD until everything is in HD at least once. You can always record the eastern feed and watch it at a time that is convenient for you. If there is a choice between adding something in HD that is currently only in SD versus adding a time-shifted version of something that is already available in HD, I will always be in favor of adding the new content.

You're assuming everyone who subscribes to DirecTV has a DVR. That's not the case.

Really looking forward to Universal Sports HD. Is that available in HD anywhere, though, or are we just wishfully hoping? With the Winter Olympics next year I'm sure they'll have some curling leading up to the Games. This is probably the only way for me to catch any non-Olympic curling.
